Digital Technology is changing the way of production

However, a good change is taking place. Manufacturers have shown strong interest in emerging technologies such as cloud computing, digital analytics tools and the Internet of things, all of which can serve as powerful tools to redefine and improve operational efficiency and profitability. In other words, these new technologies, such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of things, the Industrial Internet of things (IIoT) and 3D manufacturing (3D manufacturing), are sweeping across manufacturing and are likely to revolutionize the way existing factories that are produced through automated industrial processes.

Through the use of the Internet of things and various sensors, it is possible to extract data from production equipment in real time, to organize and analyze the data fully, and eventually the information is sent to the ERP system, through which operators can make more intelligent use of the information. More accurate decision-making judgment. Predictive maintenance functions monitor and evaluate the equipment's health based on temperature, pressure and other parameters, and alert operators to potential future failures.

As the age of industry 4.0 approaches, the demand for highly skilled labor will increase because of their experience and ability to create and implement new manufacturing management systems. Optimizing the production line involves many complicated problems. However, manufacturers now have stronger data collection and analysis capabilities than ever before. By using the production execution system (Manufacturing Execution System, for short MES), they can do a lot of work in the workshop, such as process planning, visual management, factory modeling, operational simulation, resource selection, remote management, process route planning, etc. The MES solution provided by KPIT can help customers effectively realize the globalization of production efficiency through a unified manufacturing management platform, including Product Lifecycle Management (Product Lifecycle Management,) for PLM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) (Enterprise Resource Planning, for short ERP), Manufacturing Operations Management (Manufacturing Operations Manag Ement, (MOM) and workshop control provide real-time and visible information support for plant operation to improve and optimize the decision-making mode.
